Rebel Carbon/ Carbon fibre mountainbike frame

Discipline: Product

After the success of the Scenario and Adrenalin carbon fibre frames a new sibling in the mountainbike family was to be expected. Top at the list of priorities: to develop a super light yet rigid frame. The proven form of the classic Rebel mountainbike frame has been adapted to the material characteristics of carbon fibre.The futuristic new 3-D dropouts provide a strong mounting point for shifting components, disc brake and rear wheel as well as unusual and innovative design.The result is not just beautiful to behold: in first tests the frame received top marks in stiffness and STW (Stiffness-to-Weight) categories. The Rebel Carbon transforms power into motion like no other bike before it.
